A few months ago, I got crowns on two of my molars.
They’d been aching pretty regularly up to then. For a while, no more hurty teeth. Yay!
Lately, the one on the left has started aching again. I’m going to have to go in and have the dentist check it out.
Dammit. If they tell me I need a root canal, I may tell them to just yank the fucker and be done with it.
Director: I wish our TV could do vertical and horizontal polarization so it could show Avatar in 3D.
Me: That will probably be the next big thing. Right now 3D is their way of getting people back into theatres.
Director: What will they do to get us into the theatre when we have 3D on our televisions?
Me: I guess they’ll have to perfect Smell-O-Vision.
Director: Oh, God.
I’ve seen this ad a few times, it’s for some toilet bowl cleaner or other. (I’m sure the marketing guys would just flop over dead to hear that I honestly don’t remember what brand.)
Among its other virtues, the ad proclaims that it cleans “invisible stains.”
Every time, I find myself thinking, “If it’s invisible, it’s not a stain. Visibility is part of the definition of a stain.”
Yes, I’m sure it’s cleaning things that are not visible. But those things are not stains.
Sheesh.
